Do you know where your testosterone level is? Unless it’s over about 250 they can cause some real serious problems with desire and erection and feeling.

A few people in this forum have had the implant done, and they have been really pleased with it.

The Mayo Clinic had a urologist come on and talk about multiple treatments for ED. Using something like Trimix injections worked well for many people.

The implant was very highly popular about 90% of people that had them were very satisfied with them.

Here’s the info from a slide the Mayo Clinic doctor posted.

PENILE PROSTHESIS
• Pros
• Firm erection: whenever you want, as long as you want
• Without impacting: urination, ejaculation, orgasm, penile sensation
• High patient and partner satisfaction rates (80-
90%)1-2
• Cons
• Surgical procedure
• Risks (infection, mechanical malfunction, perceived shortening)
